A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the course inventory:

The inventory was completed in 2 phases:Phase 1- In the first phase a search of the 2014-2015 Bulletin was conducted to create two lists: Potential sustainability courses and potential courses that include sustainability. The potential sustainability course list was generated by searching our entire course catalog for the term “sustaina”. If any form of the word appeared in the course title or course description, then that course was added to the list. The list of potential courses that include sustainability was generated in the same way, however for this list we searched the catalog for this list of search terms independently:• Environment• Ecologic/Ecology• Natura+Resource• Conservation• Economic• Community• Community+development• Social• Societ• Societal+development• Global• Cities• BioregionPhase 2- Independent review of the results of phase 1 by faculty and staff members of the President's Sustainability Advisory Committee to determine which courses are included on which list using the above definition as the guiding criteria.

Previous Value:
The inventory was completed in 2 phases:
Phase 1- In the first phase a search of the 2014-2015 Bulletin was conducted to create two lists: Potentially sustainably focused (SF) and potentially sustainably related (SR). The SF list was generated by searching our entire course catalog for the term “sustaina”. If any form of the word appeared in the course title or course description, then that course was added to the list. The SR list was generated in the same way, however for this list we searched the catalog for this list of search terms independently:
• Environment
• Ecologic/Ecology
• Natura+Resource
• Conservation
• Economic
• Community
• Community+development
• Social
• Societ
• Societal+development
• Global
• Cities
• Bioregion
Phase 2- Independent review of the results of phase 1 by the ER subcommittee of the PSAC to determine which courses are included on which list using the above definition as the guiding criteria.

Explanation:
Minor changes in language of methodology to eliminate confusion between STARS V1 and STARS V2 language. We are confident that V2 criteria were met by the existing methodology.
